Brain Stem Infarction Presenting as Isolated Trigeminal Sensory Neuropathy (Case Report)

Abstract

Objective: We present a patient with isolated trigeminal sensory neuropathy secondary to the involvement of brain stem. Material and method: A 49 year-old man who has numbness on the right side of his face and oral cavity was investigated. Cranial MRI revealed ischemic focus at right inferior dorsolateral pontine region. The only risk factor was protein S deficiency. The symptoms of the patient disappeared almost completely within a month. Conclusion: When an isolated trigeminal sensory neuropathy is diagnosed, one should think of brain stem involvement and investigate the risk factors for occlusive vessel diseases. Key words: Trigeminal sensory neuropathy, Brain stem infarction, Protein S deficiency
